With current versions of PG, look into returning a cursor from plpgsql. For
7.3 there are table functions. Look in the manual for examples with cursors -
also perhaps check Roberto Mello's plpgsql cookbook on
techdocs.postgresql.org
Table functions might well be documented in the developer's version of the
manual but there are definitely examples in the contrib/ directory of the
source download (of 7.3). I seem to remember an example in the mailing lists
too, so perhaps a check of the archives would be worthwhile.
